Sound like a great few weeks ahead.I am toying with going to Omaha for the weekend. It's been on my sports bucket list and what greater time. Have fam in Kansas City so I can see them, too. The prices are surprisingly not too bad..around $40 for the day games and $80 for the evening.
It's the uncertainty of the schedule that's holding me back. I don't think they will announce dates and times until GA/NCSU concludes. I am hoping for Fri/Sun for the Heels. I am going to Ireland for vacay next week so that's a lot of plane time in a short window and my tolerance is low already lately.
I also hated the USA-Europe flights as you never sleep and time zone shock hits as well. I never could sleep and back in the day when I started flying smoking was allowed (which made for a miserable experience if you were near the smoking row). In 1969 as a young teenager, I visited Ireland & was amazed re: how green it was. Fun visit but never have been back.
Re: baseball—Heels seem to have a special team so going could be rewarding/worth the trip; plus, the Hoos are a good team so should be a great first game.
FWIW: People say Omaha is a great host city & Tournament is well run.
